I stand corrected

Is it actually realistic to see a rotary elevated above a highway for exits? I've never heard of such a thing in reality. (but I also live in a province that does not have a single divided highway so there's a lot I don't see). If you could find a real life image of such a thing I'd love to see it. I'm always interested in seeing new highway options.

Just a quick update.... Somebody had earlier asked me if I had the simcity cursors or not.. I did not have them. I tried it out in Cedega and it works like a dream, cursors, those oneway and el train textures too... some graphical glitches in hardware rendering, trees have black blocks around them and such, but seems ok in software (does anybody know what kind of performance hit I'll take like this? I haven't put it in a big city yet). I had tried cedega earlier and couldn't get it to launch, I think I know what that problem was... I was listening to some music at the time (I usually do this while playing SC) and it was crashing over the in-ability to use the sound card. I guess I'll just have to sym-link the music folder to my MP3 folder. (will apps follow symlinks in wine?)

I might give it a re-install and see how that works out, Maybe I'll give it a try in cedega too.... As for the rotation thing... I use to see that in windows too

I already have those. Nam changed the oneways so I can see most of them (the non arrow textures show fine) but intersections dont show, and I've yet to see any changes on the el trains.

IonWind, thanks you got my regions working for me. Unfortunately still no luck with the oneway and el train textures. odd that it's only those 2....

bah, this is almost enough fun to make me consider going back to XP lol So the saga continues.. I put nam and my other plugins in place. no change to those 2 messed up textured, other than the fact that my now suppressed oneway arrows allow the oneway road to show but nowhere that it uses the original textures (intersections mainly) The el trains are still messed up. I've also discovered a new issue. I can't seem to see any add-on regions within the game. The folders are all there but the game only shows the original regions, is there something that needs to be tweeked?

Love the new dealership....

I don't usually play with the darkness so I probably don't even have the night lighting in windows I'll check out the cursor and nam later.

OK, that got me into the game now I have a odd graphical issue... It only seems to affect 2 transit types (I haven't installed nam yet so don't know about those) But when I draw oneway roads, the drag just shows brown, and the road never displays on the map. The trafic lights for intersections do though. And for El trains, I get the same brown while dragging but get the tracks, they just are covered in a checkerboard of Red Green and Blue. I've tried this both in hardware and software rendering and with and without desktop emulation.

I have 0.9.46 installed now... the latest is 9.0.55

Yup, I'm using ubuntu and my first attempt was with the version of Wine available within the synaptic package manager. and unfortunately it's a bit old and I can't get the game to launch in it.

Just an old one I dug up.

That's probably it... unfortunately I'm hitting another issue trying to compile t he new version... configure: creating cache config.cache checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1 checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1 checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. Configure failed, aborting install.

I've managed to get it installed, but when it tries to run I just close back to my desktop. any idea what I should be tweeking? I tried full screen as well.

Nice one Dsrwhat316. Can we get a bit wider view? do those ramps actually connect to the highway in a nice way?

it looks good, maybe a bigger. Kinda stock yard/warehouse kind of look.

bbfan02, This is what a ring road looks like, this one is from Paris France, See the big Highway making a circle around the city instead of going from Point A to Point B? That's your ring road.

Bring it back to the store you bought it from get your money back and go buy it elsewhere. They sold you a used game...

There's a great tutorial on how to generate them from USGS data. Makes them exact.... https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=141&threadid=76684&enterthread=y Just follow it step by step and you'll have exactly what you want....

My first though is that the access code is the serial number.... second though is that you didn't actually register that with EA. (if it's a bootleg). You said there's no cd case. What was the disk in? A carboard sleeve? a paper sleeve? Jewel Case? It wouldn't have shipped from EA with no holder of any kind. You might want to take a very close look at the disks themselves. Do they look at all like they might be burnt? Does the lable appear real or like a copy/stick on label etc? Last resort, go back to the store and get your money back then go find a legitimate store and get it there.

Yeah, they're called euro type or something like that

Hey haljackey, I have a question for you. Will traffic flow across city borders via RHW? I can only seem to get it to work by converting the traffic to maxis highway for the border then back again.

haljackey: Thank ye kindly, I love the idea so much I'll probably use it. Was playing with it a bit but I couldn't get it right, Now I see what I was doing differently.

If you look at your highway there, you can only leave the airport, there is no exits on the inbound lanes of the highway.
